Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) Deputy Administrator Thomas M. Harrigan, left, and U.S. Attorney for the District of Colorado John Walsh, are sworn in on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, March 4, 2014, prior to testifying before the House Oversight subcommittee on Government Operations hearing on the Obama Administration’s policies on marijuana. In an election year that could tip the balance of power in Congress, some Republicans have accused the White House of cherry-picking which federal laws to enforce. The administration has said it continues to pursue dangerous criminals, but Obama himself last month in an interview declared marijuana no more dangerous than alcohol and contrasted it with “harder drugs” including cocaine and methamphetamine.

FILE - This Aug. 8, 2009 file photo shows actor-singer David Cassidy, best known for his role as Keith Partridge on "The Partridge Family," arrives at the ABC Disney Summer press tour party in Pasadena, Calif. A defense lawyer says a New York drunken-driving charge against 1970s teen heartthrob David Cassidy has been reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor and returned to a town court for resolution. Cassidy was pulled over in the town of Schodack and charged with driving while intoxicated in August 2013, when he was in upstate New York for a horse racing meet in Saratoga Springs. The charge was a felony because Cassidy has a 2011 driving-under-the-influence conviction in his home state of Florida. (AP Photo/Dan Steinberg, File)
